Yacht Port Cartagena, committed to CSR, actively collaborates with the project “Tortuga a Bordo”, with the goal of improving the marina turtles´ situation on the coast of the Communities of Andalucía and Murcia.

This project intends to facilitate the rescue of injured or sick turtles found at sea for transfer to recovery centres. It promotes the exchange of information about the sea and sea turtles between scientists and groups that develop their activities at sea, also trying to increase awareness on the conservation of sea turtles and the importance of collaboration between different sectors.

This way, Yacht Port Cartagena becomes an information point about rescued turtles and will have a tank for temporary reception of these animals until their collection, by technical staff, for transfer to recovery centres.

For this reason a speech about conservation of sea turtles will take place in Palacio Molina (Funcarele) next Thursday 3rd of November 2016.
